It's an interesting concept. Enjoyed it so far!

It plays like an early access title. Loading screens and very tediously slow travel on the map. The map is "open", in theory, but due to limited fuel and slow travel, deviating off the default course seems like a death sentence.

No save feature that I could see. Any mistake could end a run. No "undo" button for combat movement either.

For me, having the currency be both fuel and money takes away from the fun. I'd rather they were separate, as it seems to be tight, and spending it makes running out of fuel a very likely scenario.

Needing to go through the early game over and over, which is what I was expecting to be necessary to make meaningful progress, is lazy game design.

In a random event, I met a "programmer" and after expressing an interest in trading, it forced me to make a purchase. I don't even know what "access codes" are, and it wasn't even clear before I agreed to trade whether I was buying or selling them (I had just picked some up from a previous event, so I thought he might want mine), but once I agreed to trade it just gave me 3 choices of amounts to buy- no cancel option. What a bizarre oversight not to be able to cancel the transaction.

After my compelled trade, I then ran out of fuel and had to fight a bunch of dudes. The whole run, I didn't seem to be able to heal- none of my characters had a heal ability, unlike the tutorial, and I didn't seem to heal over time when travelling. I eventually saw that there was a med-bay in the ship- seems like the sort of thing a tutorial should mention.

Tactics-wise, I personally don't care for the line of sight restrictions. Not being able to shoot over low obstacles is strange, or lean around corners. Since most attacks are turn ending, it means your guys are left out in the open a lot. I soaked up lots of damage, which then is costly to heal.

Oh, and the dialogue and grammar is poor. It is often hard to determine who is speaking, and there are awkward phrases and missed punctuation frequently within the text.

Interesting concept and world building. However it currently lacks both polish and content. Core gameplay is fun but is often clunky and unresponsive. Hours of content is also lacking, 5 maybe 10 hours if you are attempting to get all achievements. All in all doesn't feel like a 15 dollar game (even with a small dev team).
